FAQ: More Detailed Notes from the Associate and Assistant Deans and the Academic Advisement Center for Student Success STUDENT RELATED ISSUES – Please do not hesitate to seek assistance from your Chair and the Associate and Assistant Deans when you have questions that relate to students. Q. What if I notice a student who demonstrates exceptional abilities (e.g., writing, speaking, research, arts, etc.) and I want to connect that student to enriched experiences? A. Noticing and cultivating exceptional academic, interpersonal, artistic and other talents

and abilities in our students is part of the LMU mission. The Ignatian Tradition refers work to this as cura personalis (care for the unique and entire person). There are many opportunities at LMU to encourage excellence. A few examples are: Undergraduate Research Symposium and the Arts Showcase, the Honors Program, the Debate Team, the arts performances and exhibits, Rains Research Assistants working alongside a professor who is conducting research, mentoring in CFA Student Mentoring Program, Service Organizations, Student Government, application for Fulbright and other grants and many more. Please speak with your Chair, department and university faculty outside the department, the Dean and the Associate and Assistant Deans for specifics on these and many other programs.

Q. What if I notice signs of student distress? (e.g., ongoing student illness, depression, substance abuse, academic issues.) A. Cura personalis also involves noticing student distress. In the case where a student is a threat to him/herself or anyone else, immediately contact Public Safety’s on-campus hotline by dialing 222. From any other phone, call 310.338.2893 – enter 1.

If a student appears to exhibit a pattern of ongoing distress or a sudden display of significant distress, notify your department Chair who might then refer that student to

the Associate Dean or Assistant Dean and as appropriate refer to Community of Care. (310. 338-3756), email the Student Affairs Dean's Office, or access the convenient

online referral form through PROWL to share a concern. Q. How do I support a student during interpersonal crisis? A. If a student reports to a faculty member an incident of sexual assault or inappropriate interpersonal conduct, it is the responsibility of the faculty member to support and report. Hear the student out, but inform the student of the faculty member’s

15 | P a g e

responsibility to immediately report the information shared by the student to the Department of Public Safety, (310.338.2893) and LMU CARES (310.258.4381) If interpersonal concern is of a different nature, please contact appropriate medical, psychological, or other support services described in this handout. When, in question, contact Associate Dean. The following excerpt is from the Faculty and Staff Support and Report Guide. A complete Guide may be obtained from the Associate Dean.

As trusted members of the LMU community, faculty and staff members are often the first point of contact for students who wish to share information about sexual misconduct. Federal laws and LMU policies have recently changed. [The Faculty and Staff Support and Report Guide] provides information about your obligations and how to support students who report sexual misconduct.

LMU is committed to protecting our campus community from sexual and interpersonal misconduct, as well as ensuring that resources are available to support any person who experiences misconduct.

At LMU, sexual misconduct includes all forms of sexual harassment listed under Title IX legislation, which includes rape, sexual assault, sexual battery, sexual coercion and unwelcome intrusion into another’s sexual seclusion or privacy. Interpersonal misconduct includes dating violence, domestic violence and stalking.

What is my responsibility?

SUPPORT AND REPORT

The Center for Teaching Excellence offers many valuable workshops on a wide range of topics. Visit their website often at: http://www.lmu.edu/libraries_research/cte.htm; teachers@lmu.edu; 310.338.2815; University Hall, Suite 3000). The Office for Research and Sponsored Projects offers workshops on grant writing and staff are available to assist with the seeking and writing of grants.

COURSE ENROLLMENT ISSUES, GRADING AND RELATED TEACHING ISSUES Enrollment: Q. What if a student wants an override (allow to register for a course that he/she would not normally be able to register for)? A. ALL Overrides MUST BE CLEARED BY THE CHAIR. Although a faculty member may

request the Chair admit a student to a course that has reached capacity, ONLY the Chair or particularly appointed designees, may override a student for any reason to a course. The Chair will not add students to a full course without permission of the faculty member. That being said, there may be emergency situations where the Chair may have to make the final decision.

Q. There is a student attending my class but not showing up on my roster. How can

I add them? A. After the first week of the term, no student is permitted to attend a class without

being officially registered in it. You, as the instructor, must remind students of this University policy. University policy is very strict about this. The student is responsible for adding him/herself to the class, either via PROWL if it’s the first week of classes or via General Petition form (obtained on-line at the REGISTRAR site or in St. Robert’s 101) if after. Send student to the department Chair if he or she is requesting to add the class after the first week of school. You may make a recommendation to the Chair by email (e.g., This is ok in my course/This will not be ok in my course). The Chair will make the decision and, if approved, will sign the General Petition. This policy includes students on the PROWL waitlist. The Associate Dean will not accept petitions that are not signed by the Chair. Please alert the Chair, the Associate Dean and the Registrar through an email so that they might assist in handling the situation.

Q. There is a student on my roster who has never been in class. How can I drop the student? A. Instructors cannot officially drop students from their class, even if they have never

attended. You may wish to email the student(s) via the email hyperlink on the PROWL roster and let them know that no-show students will be given a final grade of F. Hopefully, this notification will prompt the student to take action to drop or withdraw from the class. Please also let the Associate Dean and Registrar know.

Q. What if a student is on my roster, attends class for a while and then stops attending or attends very sporadically?

19 | P a g e

A. Of course, if attendance is sporadic, speak with the student. Sometimes this is all that needs to happen to change student behavior. However, sometimes there are deeper issues of concern. See previous listing of various support services on campus. Refer students to these services if you believe they will follow-up. If you have a question whether they will follow-up, refer them to the Associate Dean who will be able to assist in connecting the student with the appropriate support. The Associate Dean and the Assistant Dean seek to assist students - not to reprimand them. Sometimes students avoid seeking information because they want to avoid reprimand. All that being said, let the Associate Dean (Michele.Hammers@lmu.edu) and the Dean of Students know about sporadic absence when you suspect there are issues of concern that need attention.

If a student is absent over a week and you do not know the reason, contact the student through email AND notify the Associate Dean and the Dean of Students.

TESTING, GRADING AND STUDENT ATTENDANCE Q. As a faculty member, do I need to give a Mid-Term Exam or record Mid-Term grades? A. Faculty are strongly encouraged to give Mid-term deficiency notices to students who are

earning a C-or less. Mid-term grades are posted by faculty through the online system PROWL. They must be posted during the time-period allotted by the Registrar’s Office. The Registrar will send out notification of these dates each term. Students are informed of unsatisfactory work by checking PROWL and by a letter from the Dean’s Office. The notices, advisory in nature and issued prior to the last day to withdraw in a term, are not part of the student’s permanent record.

LMU tracks student progress and the Mid-term Exam helps in this regard. If a student is struggling at the middle of the term the Dean’s Office can offer intervention, referrals and support. If faculty members do not administer a Mid-Term Exam, along with the mid-term progress report, students may not get an accurate assessment of their academic status. Timely support and advising are critical for student success. Faculty should have some formal way of evaluating student performance by the middle of the term. The grade of C- or lower should be reported.

Q. What if a student contacts faculty to explain that they cannot attend (the first day of) classes? What if they say it is because of job-related requirements of their boss?

A. Give the student the option to talk with the Associate or Assistant Dean about planning, time management, and academic expectations for progress at LMU. Students who must work require special advising to successfully manage multiple priorities. If you have a written attendance policy clearly stated in your syllabus, it is easier for the student to understand your expectations about attending classes. If not, students are more likely to skip your class for a different priority.

Q. Do I need an attendance policy? A. Whether or not you include Attendance as part of assessment in your course, you MUST

take roll each day and retain the records of enrollment for a year following the course.

20 | P a g e

There are both academic and legally related reasons for taking roll every class session. Although enforcing an attendance policy is at the discretion of the professor, there are many advantages for written attendance policy that is reflected in your syllabus. Without an attendance policy and clear expectations associated with being present for classes and learning experiences, professors may find themselves at a loss during grade disputes and other challenges with student interpretations of successfully completing a course.

Note: The Health Center at LMU does not issue absence excuses.

Q: A student is questioning his/her final grade. What should I do? A. Academic excellence is a joint effort between the faculty member and the student. YOUR

SYLLABUS IS YOUR CONTRACT with the student. All grades should reflect the work and terms of assessment described in the syllabus. The procedure for grade appeals is included in the University Bulletin. http://academics.lmu.edu/registrar/ academicresources/bulletin/ Per this policy, you must first meet in person with the student to discuss the reason(s) for the final grade. If the decision is made to recommend a change of the grade, it will ultimately be reviewed and approved by the Associate Dean, but our office is the last stop in the grade appeal process (that is, students may not circumvent the professor or department Chair in appealing their final grade). Students may not do extra work after grade is posted to raise their grade. Students may ask you to raise a grade so that they can qualify for a scholarship. This is not a valid reason to change a grade. Please consult with your Chair if students construct arguments for the raising of a grade for any reason other than ERROR.

Q. What are some common best practices regarding change of grades? A. Academic excellence is a joint effort between the faculty member and the student.

YOUR SYLLABUS IS YOUR CONTRACT with the student. All grades should reflect the work and terms of assessment described in the syllabus. Grades may only be changed if for some reason the faculty member has made an ERROR. It is critically important that grade changes are kept to a minimum. The most common reasons for grade changes are: (1) Errors in the totaling of absences; (2) the apparent overlooking of assignments that the student turned in but the faculty did not grade; and (3) miscalculation of total points to determine the final grade. Every effort should be made to avoid these errors. Keeping good records of attendance and grading will enable efficient handling of questions of final grades linked to these issues. RETENTION POLICY ON FINALS, PROJECTS, PAPERS AND/OR GRADE/ ATTENDANCE RECORDS FINALS AND OTHER WORK

Q. How long do I have to keep records of grades and copies of Finals or Final project assignments?

21 | P a g e

A. Faculty are expected to retain a copy of the Final Exam or Final project assignments (when a course requires this kind of work) FOR ONE FULL SEMESTER. (Faculty do not retain the actual work of the student but rather the exam or final assignment).

Faculty will inform students in writing (syllabus or handout or email or MYLMU Connect) that they are expected to keep electronic or other copies of their own work. (Fall course material held until May; Spring course material held until December). A statement for this purpose could read: “All students are required to keep an electronic copy or photographed, filmed records of their course projects until the conclusion of the following term.”

GRADES/ATTENDANCE RECORD Q. Do students turn in work electronically at LMU, and have there been issues

with electronic submission of work? A. Yes. Many professors accept work electronically. However, we have had a significant increase in the number of students who claim to have sent assignments or finals to professors through a variety of electronic methods but somehow “the assignment was lost in the transmission.”

o The Center for Teaching Excellence advises that faculty and students ONLY use

their LMU email accounts when conducting LMU business. There appears to be more errors in transmission when personal accounts are used.

o Please have a back-up system for guaranteeing that sent work arrives in your email (Always check the junk mail folder) or through Blackboard (MYLMU Connect). Please refer to CFA Instructional Technologist at (310) 338-2772 for assistance. The Information Technology (IT) staff recommends using MYLMU Connect rather than email for transmission of assignments.

Q. What is the new Academic Honesty Policy? A. The LMU Faculty Senate, with dialogue and approval of faculty and Senior Administrators, has approved a new Academic Honesty Policy and Procedures Document. This document emphasizes the importance and power of academic honesty and it discuss what occurs in the event a student appears to have chosen a less than “honest” approach to his/her academic/artistic work. Please familiarize yourself with that Policy. http://academics.lmu.edu/honesty/ Q. How do I best educate myself and my students on matters that concern explicit and implicit bias? A. The University takes respect for self and others, justice and equity seriously. Please see the following sites (among others) for ongoing work to create community where constant learning, ongoing improvement of curriculum and intra-interpersonal practices along with education, reconciliation, and empathy are part of who we are and how we act including but not limited to the following resources:

FACULTY ATTENDANCE

Q. What are the standards for faculty attendance? A. Standards of Practice include:

o There is an expectation that all classes will meet during their scheduled final exam

periods. If other arrangements have been made, please inform your department Chair.

o There is an expectation that all professors will meet the designated contact hours of the class and with students, throughout and to the end.

o There is an expectation that all professors and staff will consistently practice the most appropriate risk management measures in their areas; minimizing risk and seeking to ensure the safety of teachers, students and staff.

o There is an expectation that if there is a reason, usually an emergency or professional activity, that prevents a professor from meeting with their classes as scheduled—that the professor makes every effort to notify the department first, and the Dean’s office second. Secondly, that the instructor attempts to communicate with students – copying the Chair on the message.

These are standard expectations of all faculty. These expectations do not apply to one department or faculty member more than they apply to others – except in cases where risk management may differ from discipline to discipline. We collectively attend to the standards of the community and university— as we engage in our professional practices with our students and in our departments.
